Our Story
A Mission-Driven Innovation Story
From our beginnings as an Idealab concept to becoming a publicly traded company, we’ve been working hard to realize our vision of making cost-effective renewable energy available to the world. We’ve invented groundbreaking new technology and are moving towards developing new energy projects. And we’re just getting started.
Our Impact
Renewable Energy. Sustainable Difference.
By focusing on the hardest sectors to decarbonize, we’re accelerating the shift to net zero. Traditional renewables can’t efficiently sustain heat-intensive processes running at night. Heliogen’s solutions for storage and dispatchability circumvent this issue, making renewables a viable option. By helping industrial operations achieve their sustainability goals, we all win.
Clean energy that reduces emissions
Heliogen’s technology will help industry transition away from fossil fuels. A factory in a sunny location that has replaced its natural gas-fired boiler operation with 5 MWth of Heliogen energy modules can expect to reduce CO2 emissions by over 8000 metric tons per year. That’s the equivalent of taking 1700 cars off the road. Our technology has the potential to eliminate gigatons of CO2 globally.
